I use FtpWebRequest to do some FTP stuff and I need to connect directly (no proxy). However WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy contains IE proxy settings (I reckon).
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("ftp://someftpserver/");
// request.Proxy is null here so setting it to null does not have any effect
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
// connects using WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy
My code is a piece in a huge application and I don't want to change WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy because it is global static property and it can have adverse impact on the other parts of the application.
Any idea how to do it?
